== == Arena
{{Quote | Abraham Lincoln , another picks up speech, 1865 | I say this to you with unvarnished simple discussion of facts: Even love Arena Mode}.}
'Arena' 'maps are designed to classroom diversity' Team Fortress 2 ', focusing goals around combat between two teams. While other game modes lean towards a broad, overall strategy for the team, Arena concentrates on the specific tactical options teams make in a single fight. Arena maps carry the arena _ </ code> prefix.
Arena mode is smaller maps to ensure shorter matches, because you do not respawn after death. When he died in Arena mode, enter the spectate until the wheel is completed. Maps usually given control point in the middle of the map and tend to be just a normal, King of the Hill maps with no-respawn.
Sometimes, if teams are unbalanced report appears two people saying "careful, if you lose this round, you will have to sit out" and if their team loses, the player will wheel the viewer to the next round.
Loadouts changed during the countdown before the game will not do so in the game, if a player commits suicide by means of explosions or kill or explode commands from the console. Changing class and back will also work.
The First Blood buff is unique to Arena Mode, where the player gets the first Frag which are awarded with full critical hit for dealing large amounts of damage.

== == Capture the Flag
Main article: Capture the Flag Capture the Flag offers as RED and BLU bases, each containing its own Intelligence briefcase (also known as the "flag" and "intelligence"). The objective of both teams is to capture the enemy intelligence until they reach the game capture limit (default limit is 3 captures) while preventing their enemy from reaching the same.
Both teams Intelligence are typically located deep within their territory, usually in a symmetrical location from each other in an area known as a "news room". To pick up intelligence player must touch the enemy's briefcase. While holding the enemy's Intelligence, the player must bring it to the seat of their intelligence, where they must enter their 'capture zone' (indicated by yellow and black lines) in order to successfully capture. After each successful capture, your team will be rewarded with ten seconds increase crit.
If the Intelligence carrier is killed or the Intelligence is intentionally dropped, the inspector teams over the loudspeaker and the Briefcase will remain at rest for 60 seconds, with a timer shown above the Intelligence indicating how much time is left as it is returned to the Intelligence room. During this time the Intelligence can be picked up as normal. Every time the Intelligence is dropped, the timer is reset. The enemy can not move or reset the intelligence themselves. News can be performed players of invulnerability buff (ie ÜberCharge D player and lift under the influence of Bonk Atomic Punch!) And Intelligence carriers can not receive invulnerability buff. News also not be picked up by Soldier to control the Rocket Jumper or a Demoman with Sticky Jumper. Cloaked Spies can not pick up Intelligence until their mantle was turned off. However, if a Spy does acquire Intelligence then lose disguise and you can no longer change their disguise or Cloak. The exception is Dead Ringer, which forced Spy to drop intelligence and cloak than normal.
If the Intelligence carrier dies in a normally inaccessible part of the map, ie falling into a pit or on a cliff, intelligence is immediately returned to its starting position in the news room. If no team completes the capture limit before time runs out, the match will enter [[Death] Abruptly] mode.
Unlike variant Capture the Flag in other games, you may make a capture without needing to their intelligence at its base.

== == Control Point
Main article: Control Point (game mode)See also: Control point (objective) Control Point maps have two main types of game modes.
Control points are circular platforms with a team-colored light and hologram in the center (neutral points have a white light and hologram). To capture point ownership enemy team, the player simply stands on the site until the capture meter fills his or her team color. The more players on a point, the faster it will capture, though only to limited extent. Scout s and Soldier s / Demomen with Pain Train equipped, count as 2 players when capturing control points. Capture progress will not be made as soon as the players of both teams to the checkpoint. If all the players capture killed or controlled before the capture is completed, the capture progress not recover but instead will gradually diminish.
There are three states for a capture point '

File: CP neutral.png | Neutral ': The control point can be adopted either team (usually the central point in a symmetrical CP map).
File: CP photographed red.png | Made ': The control point is currently owned by the Red Team, but can be occupied BLU team.
File: CP Locked red.png | Locked ': The control point is currently owned by Red team and not (yet) be repeated BLU team.
</ Gallery>
There are four main types of Control Point maps' & ndash; Symmetric Control Point, Domination Control Point, Attack / Defend, and Medieval Attack / Defend.
=== === Symmetric Control Point
In Symmetrical control point or Linear Control Point 'Both teams start with two controlled points and a central point starts to neutral. The team that captures all control points wins. Traditional Control Point maps will go into Sudden Death (or Pat), unless it captures all the checkpoints before time runs out. Checkpoints closer to spawn team captured even faster enemy team.
Symmetric Control Point map '
=== === Domination Control Point
Dominance checkpoint , maps play symmetrically. Both teams begin no controlled points, and all points start neutral. The team that captures all control points wins. Traditional Control Point maps will go into Sudden Death (or footer), unless it captures all the checkpoints before time runs out. Unlike the symmetrical control point once it has all three points to win no matter how much capture the other team has to follow.

Attack / Defend
Attack / Defend Maps Play asymmetrically. RED begins with all the points in their control. BLU wins if it captures all the red points. Points can be captured only in the order (though some maps, such as Gravel Pit and Steel, may make exceptions). RED wins if prevents BLU from capturing all points before the timer expires. Points captured by BLU are typically locked and can not be captured again RED.
Attack / Defend maps can come in different styles. Some maps such as Dustbowl and Egypt, require the BLU team to capture three stages of two control points each to win the game. If the attacking team has not won any stage, teams will be energized, defenders then turning to the attackers, beginning with stage 1. Other maps such as Gravel Pit and Junction allow the attacker to capture two points in any order (points A or B) before the attack the final point (point C). Steel is a unique Attack / Defend map in that capturing each secondary capture point (points A, B, C and D) will allow better access to the main point (point E), such as allowing multiple routes into point E or extension bridge to the extent to attend lessons without special skip s can capture. Thus it means that one unnoticed by Scout can capture and win the game without even realizing it.

Medieval Attack / Defend 'is part of the Medieval Mode, added during the Australian Christmas updates. Plays like regular Attack / Defend, but with one major twist: all guns are removed, and only Olde weapons may be used and also causes dead players to drop small health kits instead of their weapon, text chat is filtered (Olde English) to resemble language era (though with considerable inaccuracy) and the map is in medieval style.

King of the Hill
Main article: King of the Hill{{Quote | Classless update '| Since their discovery in 1895, hills fascinate King}.}
King of the Hill is similar to Arena. King of the Hill focuses on a single control point in the middle of the map, which is neutral and locked at the beginning of the round. Teams must make its way to the checkpoint and capture it when it becomes available. Once the point is captured by a group, their team clock will start countdown three minutes. If the enemy can capture the point back, their time will count down clock starts, while the second team in the frost when the question was captured. The team won after their own point and three minutes has expired.

== == Mannpower
Main article: Mannpower Mannpower 'is a modified version of Capture the Flag, in which teams must capture the enemy Intelligence briefcase specified number of times (The default limit is 10 captures) while preventing the enemy from doing the same. Game mode is characterized by the use of hooks and twelve unique power-ups.
Hooks, useful in passing on them or pressing the action key, will latch onto the surface of the player looking for, whether it's wall, floor, ceiling, or even an enemy. While the player is automatically reeled in, air travel in a straight path to the desired location. If the hook is attached to the enemy, the enemy will continue to bleed injury until the player dies or release the hook. Players can jump while anchoring, giving them an incentive to range ledge. When a player with the hook, they can not shoot their weapons.
Power-ups provide passive buffs (except Supernova) players to pick them up. These enthusiasts range from increasing the speed of movement reflects damage back to the enemy. At the beginning of each round, set a series of power-ups to rub all over the map and can pick players from each team. When the power-up player killed, elongation will power-up in the color of the enemy team, limiting their mates from claiming directly after the death of player. If colored power-ups are not picked up after a certain period of time, they will respawn in base to the team. Players can intentionally drop power-ups with the same key used to drop Intelligence briefcase. If you do, the power-up neutral place team in color.
Mannpower currently running on modified versions ctf_ Foundry, Gorge and Thunder Mountain, as well as maps for a particular regime, Hellfire. Whenever players respawn, will be a few seconds of invulnerability. Unlike standard CTF maps, which are reporting cases located in the "secret rooms" briefcase mode Mannpower are outdoors and susceptible to theft from many directions. Players with power-ups will receive a penalty when transferring speed grapple Intelligence and players without a single gain health regeneration. After successfully capturing the Intelligence, will both capture zones to be banned for 30 seconds. If the imbalance is detected, the losing team will get "Revenge" power-up, provide them with temporary Crits, increased frequency of fire, and increased clip size.

== == Payload
Main article: PayloadIn Payload maps, BLU that must accompany Cart full of explosives through a series of checkpoints and into RED 's base within a certain amount of time. The team members BLU move or "push" the vehicle by standing next to it - the more people beside the cart, the faster it moves (to a maximum of procured three). Each member of the team RED stood at truck stops them from venturing further regardless of the number of team members BLU in a wheelchair. If no BLU player push car for 30 seconds, the truck starts running backwards slowly until reaches the checkpoint, BLU spawn, the slope upwards (in some maps), or is printed team members BLU again, which will also reset the counter, this trolley works as a Level 1 Dispenser for BLU team (and changed Spies enemies), to restore health ammunition and thereby presses. Ammo is not renewed player standing in front of the vehicle.
Some of the maps are lining the roads that open when it is taken specific point.
There are two different types Payload missions; depending on the type of the map. Certain maps, namely, Gold Rush, Hoodoo, and Thunder Mountain play like Dustbowl dividing the mission into three sections, each of the two control points, with the exception of the final stage on the Gold Rush and Thunder Mountain where the two control points and end caps, resulting in blowing up the base of the BLU is red. Time is added whenever BLU captures non-stage winning point. Another kind Payload Mission (at Badwater Basin, Barnblitz, Borneo, Frontier and above) is similar to Mountain Lab that all check points in one big stage, with larger time bonus for BLU after a successful cap. There are also quite less checkpoints, resulting in three control points and the last point where the BLU can win the game and blow up the base is red, often with flashy explosions destroy all the bombs around the truck.

=== === Payload Race
Main article: Payload RaceUnlike standard Payload maps, Payload Race 'maps have both RED and BLU teams issued with a cart; None of the opponent is limited to offensive or defensive role, both teams are provided the characteristics of the two reels. To win, each team must simultaneously pursue their cart through enemy territory to reach the final point while preventing the enemy team from doing the same. As in Payload mode, team members push the cart by standing next to it, with more members increasing the speed of the vehicle, and team members stop it.
Unlike Payload mode, the truck does not move back after any duration of time and there is no time limit; map ends only when one team successfully pushes their cart to the target. Each cart works as a Level 1 Dispenser for their team (and disguised enemy Spies), restoring health and ammunition to those pushing the cart. Part of the line may pose slopes where the truck will quickly revert back to the bottom, if ever printed. In many maps are pushing up the hill. If the shunting trolley to be killed or to a distance from the truck, the vehicle will slide down the ramp in its original condition.
